Story
Uzi is a sweet, funny, people-loving dog looking for the forever home he deserves. He was adopted 1 yr ago by my brother's friend who could no longer keep him, then he had to move, so he came to live with me. Now I'm looking for a stable, loving home where he can thrive.He's house and crate trained, knows sit, down, shake, and fist bump, loves cuddling on the bed, looking out windows, and being with his people. He's energetic and needs regular exercise.Uzi is very trainable. He stayed with a professional trainer for 10 days and made great progress. He'll benefit from continued work on leash walking and recall, and we can provide the trainer's contact.Uzi LOVES other dogs (pictured with another sibling's dog), is not aggressive but is learning dog social skills and doesn't realize his size or enthusiasm. I think he'd do we well with kids, but may accidentally knock over small children. With love and continued training he'd be an awesome life long friend

Story
This is Flor and she is 1yr 6 months old. We got Flor from a housing situation and we were supposed to find her a home but we fell in love with her. Sadly due to the cost of the economy and just life situations we cannot keep her. She is super loving, energetic and loves to play. She is the type of dog that will go with the flow. If you just want to lay around have a lazy day she will snuggle with you. If you want to go on a walk or an adventure she will be down for that as well. Overall she is a wonderful dog and will make a great companion. The last people that had her did have 2 kids and they never had any issues. Although I do want to keep in mind flor is bigger and loves to play so she could be rough without malice intent. Flor does have skin issues and we have been keeping her on Nexgaurd to manage it other than that she’s healthy as can be. She is kennel trained but I will be asking adoptees if they have a fenced backyard and if they have time for her. Thank you!

Story
My baby name is Butter. He is 1 years old. His birthday is July 22. He’s a very sweet boy. He barks a lot and he is a chase the mail man or amazon delivery person type of dog. He is VERY active so he needs lots of outside time but he also needs lots of cuddles too. He isn’t house potty trained so he does his thing on his walks. He doesn’t like pooping in our yard so we have to walk him a few times to his favorite bush. We rarely have visitors to get him socialized so he will bark at first but after he gets his sniffs and pets he calms down. When we do take him to the dog park, he’s the park bully. I love my baby very much but I do not have enough time to spend with him and to train him properly. We do also have two cats he loves to play with. But dog babies need more attention and love time. He does have a vet here we take him to and petsmart is where he gets he’s monthly groom.

Story
Saint is the sweetest thing ever! He loves his toys, his snacks, & the outdoors. More than anything he loves butt pats and cuddling. He will sit & sleep in your lap for hours if he could. Saint is currently 17 weeks old. He is still a curious explorer, who can be a little stubborn at times however he does follow commands such as potty, eat, no, come, water, and he also knows the words go to your room which is his kennel. He's not a barker nor a whiner unless he actually needs something. He's laid back yet playful when he's around children or other dogs, which makes him a great addition to any family dynamic. I acquired him at 10 weeks old from my niece's coworker, not realizing that my allergies were as severe as they are. Was hoping that his coat would stay consistent w/his hypoallergenic Yorkie parent, but his coat takes after the Papillion parent. I'm hoping that there is someone out there who will be sweet to him & love him like I would or better! Ready to fall in love??

Story
My name is Deborah Williams and I am looking to find a home for my three male nine month old white german shepherd puppies. I recently moved into a senior citizen community. And I don’t have the space to accommodate housing for them and it’s becoming very difficult for me to care for them. I am looking for a nice home for them.
